Decennium: Art in Belgium after Documenta IX - Ludion 2003

Decennium offers the beginnings of a critical approach to Belgian art of the 90s, specifically the ten years between Documenta IX and Documenta XI. The authors have resolutely chosen artists whose public image only crystallized during this period. The result is an invigorating vision that opens up a range of future possibilities. Five authors each shed light on one aspect of this constantly evolving field. Wim Peeters shows how artists ensure the singularity of their positions. Jean-Michel Botquin discusses the predilection for the everyday, Luk Lambrecht modernism as a source of inspiration, Denis Gielen the rebirth of the collective dimension, Dieter Roelstraete the impact of media shifts on art. 159p - FR/NL - 23.5x30cm - softcover - good condition
